Hey everyone!
I'm back! I just wanted to give you guys a quick thank you, a few of you left me comments or sent me messages wishing me luck for my operation, and it did the world of good!
I am doing so so well, and am now only 2 weeks away from being back to work! :)
I'm struggling with only one thing....sleep......I don't sleep, I lie exhausted but unable to sleep, with restless legs, until 3 or 4 am and then get up at 5 or 6 am. I can barely function!! The Doctor has now today put me on Zopicone, Apparently they are a Hypnotic drug and send you to sedated sleep! Thank GOD!! I need it sooooooo bad!!! :(
Apart from the odd ache or the wound healing inside (like soft tissue) I am pretty much a normal person now!
The sleep issue is my only real issue, I am walking for about a mile a day, I am now on only one pain killer a day, sometimes none! I am seeing my surgeon on Thursday and then I can hopefully go back to Physiotherapy, rehab and fitness stuff to get myself back into shape and strengthen my back!
Tomorrow I get to see my horse, on Wednesday I am seeing a friend for lunch, on Friday I am visiting our Wedding venue again for some last measurements etc, Sunday is my God-daughter's Birthday and then Keely is coming to stay! Wahooo!! We will be going out for my Gran's Birthday which is the same day as my God Daughter's. It is gonna be a really nice week coming up! :)
Fingers crossed I will be able to sleep tonight, and I guess I will do a progress post after! LOL!
